-Alow & Aloeveria - give it time

On January 21st, 2023, over 300 musicians and visual artists challenged themselves to create something in only 18 hours. Visual artists had to create a unique album cover & its supporting graphics, and musicians were limited to no less than 50 seconds and no more than 70 seconds for their songs; in short, a speedrun. The event encouraged creatives to think outside the box, picking their ideas apart in order to keep only the essentials. At the finish line, we received some of the most exciting tracks on a FORM compilation to date.

In the colors of each album cover and between the notes of each song are reflections of us— the artists. To leave pieces of ourselves *out* in lieu of a time constraint isn't easy, but it allows us to conclude what's at the center of what we create. Creativity, no matter how bare-bones or how complex & nuanced it is, is something nobody can ever take away.

All proceeds from any% will be going to SpecialEffect, a charity working to make video games accessible to those with physical disabilities.

@aruku_a_dark @dovvemusic @itsechoed @flawguri @stardew

13 writers putting pen to paper, 65 musicians composing pieces inspired by their writing, and 26 visual artists tying everything together with a cover illustration. From April 23rd to May 13th, 2023, these 104 creatives came together with one goal: to tell a story. The result amounted to thirteen beautiful tracks, rich with emotion, excitement, and wonder.

Stories take on infinitely many forms. A child's drawing. A home-cooked meal. A recount of the day given by someone returning home to their spouse. They do not have to be written, nor spoken with any amount of poetry or decorative language; they simply exist. Here's to the stories we tell. Whether written, drawn, or sang, whether a fantastic fable or a solemn look into the human experience, they all carry weight. We have no greater obligation than to simply tell them in whatever way we know how. 

All proceeds from Storybook: Chapter 2 will be donated to Active Minds, an organization supporting mental health awareness and education for young adults.

僕らいくら泣いたって
答えは向かい風
点と点

じゃあぼくら意味はないって言っても
ここには嘘ないさ

(Running along, counting the stones
Feeling the sun, blow off the dust
Finally see, reach out for me
You won't forget)

I'll remember the times
Running along, counting the stones
Escaping from here
Feeling the sun, blow off the dust
Make it all there
I finally see, reach out for me
Before I am gone
You won't forget, I will be here
Until the dawn

(Please, don't forget me)

It all comes back to you!

As we follow the signs
That’ll split us apart to our lives
We’ll remember this moment
Like it was last night
It’ll soon be fine

It’s okay to be
To leave this place and breathe
Finally free to move on
Don’t worry 'bout me
I’ll still be in reach

i’m a perfectionist
and you’re perfection to me
i just can’t take it anymore
i secretly adore, from across the room

can i handle your hair?
promise me you wont care
even if i mess it up
you complete me baby,
you’ve got me lovestruck

when i thought i was happy as i could be
i found you and no one's ever meant so much to me
i only wish this could last forever
love every second that we spend together
and when i feel your hands running through my hair
i could drift off to sleep without a care
in my dreams im as light as a feather
but i still hear it when you whisper that

i'm obsessive
i use your locks in my pursuit of perfection
i run my hands through and i make the corrections
it's got my attention
the scalp i'm caressing

the things you do to make me show you affection
give me your worries and let go of your tension
your hair eternally under my protection
i'm all out of breath and
i feel the connection

i’m a perfectionist (ooh darling)
and you’re perfection to me
i just can’t take it anymore (take it anymore)
i secretly adore, from across the room

can i handle your hair?
promise me you wont care
even if i mess it up
you complete me baby,
you’ve got me lovestruck

my heart will never be perfect
cuz sometimes it needs to skip a beat
cuz you mean everything to me
(i hope you're worth it)

i'm obsessive
using your locks in my pursuit of perfection
i run my hands through and i make the corrections

these feeling will never fade
am i okay? (am i okay)
am i okay? (am i okay)
you...

pull me in with just one touch
i never i'd be enough
never thought i'd fall in love
but you fixed that
how did you fix that?

A tiny sailboat
Only water and the sky in sight
They pull me closer
The souls beneath invite me down, I might-
Just lose composure
A friend awaits me deeper in my mind
Floating over, right before my eyes

If I try
If I might
From my hands it's drawn to life
Sail away
The horizon meets a sky of blinding light
If I try
If I might
From my hands it's drawn to life
Sail away
The horizon meets a sky of blinding light

My creation, my creation
I blinked and you were gone
My creation, my creation
Together as one

A painted picture
Captures you so perfectly tonight
Faded whispers
You melt away into the waves, I find-
No sense in comfort
Your company was everything I liked
Starting over
Waiting for a sign

If I try
If I might
From my hands it's drawn to life
Sail away
The horizon meets a sky of blinding light
If I try
If I might
From my hands it's drawn to life
Sail away
The horizon meets a sky of blinding light

My creation, my creation
I blinked and you were gone
My creation, my creation
Together as one

My creation, my creation
I blinked and you were gone
My creation, my creation
Together as one

[Verse 1: lillybug]
You want to be the savior of the damned
To heal the wounds deep within this broken land
Can you see past all your faults through your vengeful lens
There’s a reason that you fail over and over again

[Chorus 1: Evangeline and Oncill]
Hover in the centre of a hole
Holder of the new age sword, inner shifting form
Ever-changing
Haldur waning
Ever-changing
Heart awaiting

[Verse 2: Evangeline and Oncill]
You act like you’ve got the weight of the world on your hands
But it’s not that hard, not that hard, no
The sword you speak to and the fight on broken land
Can you attest to all that you said?
Marionette with tangled strings
Will you wrap back around into me
It’s not that hard, not that hard, no
(Angel in the centrefold)
It’s not that hard, not that hard, no
(Angel in the centrefold)

[Bridge: nshvll]
For the lie I take with me
All I’ve done was be there for you
Now it's done

[Chorus 2: lillybug, Evangeline, Oncill]
(In the centre of a hole
Of the new age sword, inner shifting form)
(Drop your hands and Take my hands and
Take your marks and Pierce the land in)
(when you find yourself back here
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting)

step by step, feel the tremble and earth as you fall to the ground
the lack of light in the air really hurts when you're down
and the quaking that you feel when you can't hear a sound

not even fireflies can guide you to home
crush the dandelions under your feet when you roam
wanna go to the stars but they're blocked by the smoke
these raindrops you feel make you miss all the snow
but how can we fly when we feel all alone
need a friend or a guide to match with my tone
as we look here to shine and light up the roads
so we say goodbye to the night that grew old

so you cover your ears and tremble
you're risking the years to catch the stars
the dark of night creates a semblance
a familiar room inside your heart
you look towards the forest and ease your worries
you don't have to wait until it's dark
so lift up your head, no need to hurry
'cause then you'll forget who you really are

step after step you tremble
under the sun of morn
you cherish the seconds
don't wanna regret this
time that you spent right here before
and when the cold night enters
i hope you will find shelter
just need a star to wish
upon when the clouds all drift
right down to freezing winter floor

If I wake up, can I come back?
I've done my quest, I'm back on track
I'll take my leave, from this bright place
But I hope to not, forget your face

I put my trust in a ghost
Radiant (take over me)
Close friends (known formerly)
The place I long for the most
Color gradients are all I see
Odds and ends in dormancy

As the sun came into view
Following some inscrutable cue
I knew what I had to do
Please remember my face, I promise I will too

all nighter volume 8 ended exactly 1 day before i moved out for university
this song was made in a mindset i am no longer in, a vulnerable state where all i wanted was to no longer feel that i was leaving everyone i loved behind. this song is an affirmation that they're still here, they're not far, and i'm still here. admittedly this was probably way too personal for a 24 hour charity comp but i am still incredibly grateful to FORM for letting me stream and express this feeling <3

lyrics tba sorry ive been hella busy </3
